Martin Malina commented on JBDS-942:
------------------------------------

I tested starting up the EAP server and opening some jsp files and it was reasonably fast. Starting up the server took around a minute and opening a file took a couple of seconds.
How much RAM do you have? I suppose that could make a big difference, but I don't know what else could.

I tried it on a MacBook Pro 15" early 2008 model with Snow Leopard, 4 GB of RAM and the same java version as you have.

> Starting the embedded EAP 5 instance included in the JBDS 2.1 build jbdevstudio-eap-macosx-carbon-2.1.0.v200909250150R-H168-GA.jar takes a long time.  About 1 minute once, and mostly 3-5 mins.  It does not seem to change or become different based on the number of other applications I have running.  Double clicking on a .xhtml file and bringing up the embedded two paned JSF editor also can take minutes to come up.  Shutting down the embedded EAP server, or closing out of eclipse can take minutes.  I have also experienced 3-4 crashes in about 5-6 times running this and can not seem to isolate it to a specific set of actions.  I have run a version on Linux and do not experience any of the same symptoms as noted above.  Wondering out loud if JDK 6 on Snow Leopard is not something that would be recommended or creates some of these gremlins.
